Drastic Intel price cuts

[JLK03F150]

What about Mobile CPUs? Price cuts in them?

I had to cancel my order for my Inspiron 1520. (Turns out I ordered XGA instead of WXGA and re-ordering was the only way to fix it.) So I may wait to see if there are any price drops coming for Mobile C2Ds.

I would think there would be a time lag with laptop CPU's. The manufacturer has already bought the CPU & assembled the laptop. They will have to sell current stock, then start selling laptops with the less expensive CPU in it.

That is a complete SWAG on my part.

Tomorrow is the day! Hopefully newegg reflects the price cuts right away!

[KarmaKiller]

That's what I'm hoping for also. I've been putting off ordering parts till tomm. Hopefully, some retailers have the cuts immediately. I don't think my friend will wait any longer...

And really hoping for the E6600 to be around $180 or so. May get one for him, and one for me..

If you haven't looked they've already cut some of the prices..I know the Q6600 was down to $299 its $273 at mwave and oddly they have 4400's at 129 and 4300's at 130

[RamonGTP]

Yeah, I noticed the $299 price at newegg... But why pay $299 when you can pay $266

[KarmaKiller]

So, i didn't notice any other prices being lowered. I'm I the only one??

[him61]

Wait a few days and they should be lowered. Once they get the e6x50 processors in, the price should be down.

No i didnt notice anything lower than yesterday. I did scour the sites early this morning. They need to get it together,I need to build build build, I have been waiting patiently long enough. I'm gonna put a hurtin on my plastic.

I'm looking to get a Dell laptop within a month, so I hope that the processor prices for Dell, etc... are affected soon

Thats it thats the final answer! If so visa gonna love me.

[KarmaKiller]

I would say to hold out just a little bit more. You waited this long already. Why not another week. You may save some serious cash..

Ultimate Member now..

No AFAIK the prices are still supposed to go down some more but they made the initial cut on Friday...bleh Karam beat me to it!! But yeah anyways prices right now at Newegg are higher than else were on the web so whatever you do shop it around SD has a good thread

[KarmaKiller]

So that's it on the E6600? If so, that's weak..

couldn't have said it better ... some have suggested I'll have to wait even longer up here in Canada .... grrr ... gettin' anxious!

Yea, haven't seen many price cuts around this part, well on NCIx if you score their email newsletter they have a sale until the 31st that brings everything down to like...40% of regular price on the CPU's, other then that I guess we'll have to wait!

[RamonGTP]

I'd say wait atleast until it's Monday around the whole world before buying.

Dailytech reported that Newegg is already out of stock of the Q6600.
And the lowest price was on ZipZoomFly, for $275.
